The show was interesting at first, but then they have a high school girl strapped down by aliens trying to SA her. The whole scene is played very light despite what’s happening. Also, another high schooler gets SA’d off screen as well

Fuck that and not watching more

What the fuck the anime industry has been fucking poisoned by porn brained otaku

Thank god we still have Delicious in Dungeon or I would struggle to find any good modern anime that isn’t just hentai bait for pedos. It’s that dire.

I just read through the r/anime thread and was glad to see I wasn’t the only one pretty distraught over how the scene was played out in a grossly sexual way. Like the show has an 8.6 on MAL lol. I felt like I was going crazy and the only one who was put off by this

To be fair, it’s been like this for decades.

I’ve been reading the manga and really enjoy how Momo and Okarun’s relationship is developing. But I will not fault anyone for dropping off. There’s one other scene that’s uncomfortable from the manga. It wasn’t nearly as bad as the first chapter but again not gonna hold it against someone for checking out. The older I get the more I groan at that kind of stuff especially in shounen works. It’s just thrown in there to get the demographic of teen boys horned up so they’ll buy more copies of Jump.

I’ve been thinking about whether I want to try another episode since last night, because I really did like everything else. The style especially was great. I feel like I have a higher tolerance for unfortunate anime things, but idk. My immediate reaction was this is so egregious that it shouldn’t get a pass

Idk if I’m qualified to speak on this, but imo I think there’s enough going on in the show that I’d still generally recommend it, despite it’s problematic parts.

The show’s about adolescents dealing with sexuality and growing up, and coping with the kind of societal expectations gender places on you (the aliens want Momo’s uterus, the ghost steals Okarun’s wiener). In the quiet moments when Momo and Okarun drop their pretenses and just be themselves and are honest with each other, the story really is quite sweet as a romance and it’s maybe pointing to a healthier and more equitable vision of gender relations.

  • is my take, but also SA is a very difficult topic that I think the show probably didn’t handle as well as it ought to have so yeah if you feel really uncomfortable with the tone I think maybe it’s safe to drop

Every quiet moment between Okarun and Momo makes my heart melt. Especially when they hold hands. It’s refreshing to see a naturally developing romance that isn’t filled with BAKA ECCHI *SLAP. Looking at you, Ranma 1/2

There’s still a general ecchi vibe that goes on with the show from the next couple episodes I’ve seen, so fair warning. Genitals and jokes about them are a major plot point.

That’s totally fair. I don’t want to feel like I’m pushing it on you or anyone but I generally live by the 3 episode rule. Also if are into hot older women the grandma character should show up in episode 3 and she’s my favorite in the whole series.

Yes holy shit. I saw the OP and thought “wow this show looks fun”. The animation is great, some of the dialog is real funny, the romance is cute so far, but holy shit that first episode. And the second seems to be saying that this this might be a pattern. Very gross.

I saw it coming from a mile away

Good animation + action + coomer nonsense + incel wish fulfillment = masterpiece, according to mainstream weebery.

Dandadan’s not the first, and probably not the last.

Same here. The fact that the scene starts with her in her underwear already made me uncomfortable, and then it kept getting worse as it went on.
